What is ReStart3:20?

Our organization, CRE Holdings, saw a need and a problem in our community, a need that we felt our team of skilled real estate professionals could make a dramatic impact in improving and possibly helping to solve, that only by the grace of God, we don’t find ourselves in.

What is Our Mission?

ReStart3:20 is a community center which was created to open doors to a path for the homeless. Our mission is to give the homeless, a hand up not a hand out, to restart their lives and become a contributing member of their community.

Help clients determine their needs through a strategic assessment
Approx. 30% of our clients have physical or psychological disabilities that have caused their plight.

From the assessment, we attempt to meet our clients’ short term needsThese short term needs include rapid housing and permanent or temporary work. We partner with organization, such as 1st Step and GeorgiaWorks, to accomplish these short term needs

Once employed. we assist in finding or, in the future, providing, permanent housing for clients.This is where REAL change takes place and our clients become contributing members of their community. We believe once a person has a “home”, even if it’s a single occupancy residence, they will begin to take pride in that home and themselves. We believe that if we apply the Maslow hierarchy of need to our clients, there will be a cumulative success. And, ReStart’s team personally believes that the highest level of this hierarchy cannot take place without some spiritual influence.
